Roman Politics in a Nutshell

Lately, I’ve been watching some fascinating videos by Historia Civilis on Youtube (Patreon page here) about politics in the days of the Roman Republic and the transition to an empire. This video is an overview of how the Roman consulship worked:

The fact that Rome had two leaders, or consuls, and a Senate is pretty fascinating to me.  It’s interesting to see how politics then really don’t differ all that much from now.

Anyhow, great video series, so please take a look and show the author some appreciation!  🙂
